Exceptionally unique and large Chinese blue and white export porcelain bowl extensively ‘clobbered’ (overpainted) in England with a stunning pattern featuring dragons, butterflies and numerous floral sprays. Bowl was originally commissioned as a monogrammed blue and white bowl with owners’ initials framed by underglaze blue circles. Outlines of these monograms are still visible under the overglaze enamels. Conditions in the kiln were not optimal when it was fired and this resulted in black specks visible in the white glaze and around the foot rim. These imperfections explain why this particular example was later ‘clobbered’.
从破坏的风格来看，这件事是 19 世纪初在伦敦完成的。英国的瓷器是由被称为“瓷器烧器”的工作室生产的，这些工作室提供诸如对损坏的陶瓷进行修复或重新上釉等服务，以及（如本例中的）釉上彩以覆盖瓷器中的缺陷。当时活跃在伦敦的一位知名装饰师是苏荷广场的古董商昂斯沃斯，他在自己后花园的窑炉中生产破烂的器皿。
